Add to Cart with Kulap Vilaysack & SuChin Pak

Join the hosts of Add to Cart, comedian-writer-director Kulap Vilaysack and veteran journalist SuChin Pak, in a subversive take on consumerism. Each week, they have honest, revealing (sometimes TMI) conversations about all the big and little things they’re adding to, or removing from, their carts. They decide what's worth the monetary/emotional investment, and what's not. From beauty products and health trends, to celebrities and philosophies they’re passionate about, our hosts dig into anything we buy into and what it says about who we are.

Where does SuChin Pak go when in Paris? In a straight line so she doesn’t get lost. This episode, SuChin tells Kulap everything she added to cart from her vacation to Paris. Kulap refuses to share anything, and yet SuChin still didn’t get through her whole list. This could have been a two-part deranged routine episode, but we decided to show some restraint.

Just when we thought Ku and Su were the queens of adding to cart, in walks writer, producer, actor, and comedian Phoebe Robinson. She introduces a whole new term, “cartin,” teaches Ku and Su that you can actually max out a shopping cart online, and then brings it back to earth with her three picks for the show. Plus, Su tries to slow down and Ku tries to find the source of a long-lasting headache.
